Difference Between SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW

Difference Between SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW :-

Most
of the times you might have question in your mind that why you give sap_all and
sap_new everytime we create admin user (Altough some people used to give
sap_all to every one ).So here the difference
between theseSAP_NEW:-
SAP_NEW is a SAP standard Profile which is usually assigned to system users
temporarily during an upgrade to ensure that the activities and operations of
SAP users is not hindered, during the Upgrade. It contains all the necessary
objects and transactions for the users to continue their work during the
upgrade. It should be withdrawn once all upgrade activities is completed, and
replaced with the now modified Roles as it has extensive authorizations than
required.

SAP_ALL:-
SAP_ALL is a SAP standard profile, which is used on need basis, to resolve
particular issues which may arise during the usage of SAP. It is used by
Administrators/Developers only and is applied on a need to use basis, then
withdrawn. It contains all SAP system objects and Transactions. SAP_ALL is very
critical and only SAP* contains SAP_ALL attached to it in the production
system. No other dialog users have SAP_ALL attached to them.

SAP_NEW is used in the Production environment during a version upgrade whereas
SAP_ALL shouldn't be or not allowed be used in Production except where
necessary, in a controlled manner with all proper approvals from the customer.
